Timothy Shine Dead
TIMOTHY K. SHINE, aged 37 years, died at his home at 805 North Stanton Street this morning about 9 o’clock of typhoid fever. Mr. Shine came to El Paso about eight months ago and bought the cottage where he lived until his death and also invested extensively in other real estate. While making his home here he worked at his trade of telegraph operator for the G.H. at Maria. Before coming here he was in Pennsylvania, where he went with the intention of going into business about two years ago. But he didn’t like the climate there and returned to the west. Previous to his going to that state he was employed for several years as telegraph operator and station agent for the Arizona & New Mexico Railroad at Lordsburg. His parents live in Larkspur, near San Francisco. He has several brothers, one of whom, W.M. Shine, is a brakeman for the S.P. and runs the Delaware rooms. The entire male portion of the family are railroaders. The deceased was what all his acquaintances call a noble man and his loss brings widespread sorrow. He was a Mason and the El Paso lodge will conduct his obsequies tomorrow at 10 a.m., after which his body will be interred in Evergreen Cemetery.
